Catharine A. MacKinnon

    7 de octubre de 1946

    Catharine A. MacKinnon es una jurista pionera cuyo trabajo se centra en cuestiones de igualdad de género. Sus enfoques innovadores sobre reclamaciones legales relativas al acoso sexual y la pornografía como violación de los derechos civiles, junto con su trabajo sobre modelos abolicionistas de la prostitución, han influido significativamente en el derecho internacional. Sus análisis sobre igualdad, pornografía y discurso de odio han sido ampliamente adoptados, y su labor en derecho internacional, incluida la representación de supervivientes de violencia sexual genocida, ha llevado a victorias legales históricas. Los escritos de MacKinnon ofrecen una profunda perspectiva sobre los mecanismos legales y su impacto en la igualdad y los derechos humanos.

      More than half a century after the Universal Declaration of Human Rights defined what a human being is and is entitled to, MacKinnon asks: Are women human yet? She exposes the consequences and significance of the systematic maltreatment of women and its systemic condonation as she points toward fresh ways of targeting its toxic orthodoxies.

      "Catharine A. MacKinnon, noted feminist and legal scholar, explores and develops her original theories and practical proposals on sexual politics and law. These discourses, originally delivered as speeches, have been brilliantly woven into a book that retains all the spontaneity and accessibility of a live presentation. Through these engaged works on issues such as rape, abortion, athletics, sexual harassment, and pornography, MacKinnon seeks feminism on its own terms, unconstrained by the limits of prior traditions. She argues that viewing gender as a matter of sameness and difference--as virtually all existing theory and law have done--covers up the reality of gender, which is a system of social hierarchy, an imposed inequality of power"--Back cover.

      The miniscule motion of a butterfly's wings can trigger a tornado half a world away, according to chaos theory. Catharine A. MacKinnon's collected work on gender inequality including new pieces argues that the right seemingly minor interventions in the legal realm can have a butterfly effect that generates major social and cultural transformations.
